A Proposition for an ample Equivolent for the Intended Duties on Wines , which will be ruinous to all the Traders and dealers therein ; abating his Majesties Customs near as much as it will raise in this Duty ; be destructive to the Navigation , and a means to prohibit our Woollen Manufactures and Fishery in Spain and Portugal , which Consume near one half of all the Woollen Manufactures that are exported .

1. That every Tun of Wine Imported pay by the Importor 5 l. per Tun more then the present duties , in ready Mony , which after the rate of 16000 Tunns will amount unto 80000 l. 2. Lead to pay 20 s . per Fother at the Mines and draw back 10 s . upon Exportation 60000 l. 3. Tobacco Consumed in Ireland pays now but 3 d . per pound ; let it pay as much as Tobacco Consumed in England , because it cannot be brought into Ireland any otherway then from England , and being once Imported there , cannot be exported again 30000 l.   170000 l.

A Proposition for an Equivolent for the Intended Duty of 12 l. 12 per Tun upon Wines , which will not only hinder the Importation of them , and so lessen that Revenue on which there are Loans , and in Consequence the Credit of the Exchequer ; But prove destructive to the present Traders therein , both Merchants and Vintners , very much abate the Exportation of woollen Manufactury , and our Navigation .

4. It is therefore Humbly proposed that the subsidy of Tunnadge and Poundage Inwards may rather be Augmented and Encreased to half as much more then now it pays : ( which it is Humbly Conceived will be an Ample Equivalent ) whereby all Merchandise will bear its Proportion , and Raise the Mony more Certain without Making more Officers , or any Addition of Charge for Collecting , And may be Comprehended In a very short Act.

It is Humbly offered to this Honourable House , to accept of Either these Equivolents , or Out of Both these Proposals , to take such Parts of them , and to add unto or Diminish from them , as to their great Wisdom shall seem Meet .

Equivalent for the Intended Wine Duties .
